International Journal of Tourism and Hotel Management · 2023 · Vol. 5(1) · pp. 17–25

Abstract

Food and water waste are two elements that are very common in hospitality businesses. This article will consider why such waste occurs in hotels and the possible solutions to reduce these losses. Reducing food and water waste has an impact not only on the economy but also on the social and environmental environment. Relieving these harmful elements will therefore lead to an improvement in the hotel's profitability and better sustainability of the hospitality business.
